Heady Spirits

[Heady Spirits -]
Cramped and musty, there isn't a whole lot of extra room within this small shed. Burning candles, their flames a dull purple, are scattered around several stone figures sitting on the floor, which are decorated with various types of hats and headdresses. Sitting in one corner is a branching stand constructed from bleached bone, its tiered arms pressed flush to the stone behind it. Tiny bones and feathers litter the dirt floor, making the footing precarious.

In the Common language, it reads:
The headgear in this room contains the trapped spirit of an animal.
Be warned - they are wild and untamed, often lashing out in anger at those they do not know.
Tame them and partner with them, however, to soothe the wild spirit within.
Initially they are very plain, providing an ability to infuse your eyes with their spiritual power and offering the ability to be seen most prominently when people LOOK at you.
Due to their special infusion, if you wield a similar weapon, shield, or armor from the shops next door with one of these head-worn items, the taming of the spirits in all of them are multiplied.
Actual helms and greathelms are located on the stand, while the pieces adorning the various figures are more decorative and will not provide you protection as armor.
Visit the shrine through the opening to unlock their further potential.

On the branching stand you see: a rugged leather arming cap set with curled ram horns, a reinforced leather hood adorned with a red robin feather, a matte black steel hounskull with a wide tusk-adorned visor and a polished steel horseman's pot topped with a braided crest.

Heady Spirits

[Heady Spirits - 8212730]
Dark and squat, a makeshift alcove has been gouged into the wall of the shed to create this tiny nook. While there is little space to move, enough room has been made to house a low ivory shrine against one wall. The air is stuffy and humid, the overpowering smell of mildew pervasive in the cramped quarters. You also see a smooth stone sign.
Obvious exits: out

In the Common language, it reads:
Unlock the further potential of your headdresses by using the certificates on the shrine.
* Animalistic Avatar
Use the notes on the shrine to unlock the ability to let the spirit infuse your very being, briefly becoming the living avatar of the spirit within and causing targets to be rooted in place with fear.  In addition, the provided papyrus will let you wield this ability on multiple targets in the room.
If you also wield an Animalistic Spirit weapon, shield, or armor, the spirit in the headgear will either add Animalistic Fury flares or Animalistic Instinct flares to the attack.
* Animalistic Apparition
Using the scroll, you can unlock the ability of the spirit within your headdress to show through when people LOOK at you.  When activated with SPIN, a version of the animal can be seen with you.
* Spiritual Imprint
Using the provided voucher, you can unlock the ability for the spirit in your headgear to "imprint" on a spirit within another of your Animalistic Spirit items, allowing it to morph into the physical features of the other spirit at-will.  NOTE: You can only unlock up to 4 "imprint" slots max, and the other item's spirit must trust you to be able to imprint.
* Fluff Actions and Spirit Change
Unlock the tricks your spirit can do, or the tricks you can do with your headgear, with the provided parchments.
